Definition

Nonstandard uniform title added entries. Use for added entries not supported by cataloging rules (e.g., donor or gift information or variant form). Enter information in field 793 as you would in field 730 (Added Entry–Uniform Title). Note: Alternatively, you may also use field 799 (Local Added Entry–Uniform Title). Follow local practice.

Master record retention

Field 793 is not retained in the master record. However, it is retained in archive records, institution records, exported records, and OCLC-MARC records.

1st Indicator

Nonfiling characters. The number of character positions associated with a definite or indefinite article (e.g., An or The) at the beginning of a title and that are disregarded in sorting and filing processes.

Note: Current practice is to enter the title without articles and use 1st indicator value 0.

0 No nonfiling characters. No initial article character positions are disregarded. Use value 0 if the title does not begin with an article.
793 0 Collection africaine.

Diacritical marks or special characters at the beginning of a series statement field that does not begin with an initial article are not counted as nonfiling characters.

793 0 Ökonomische Studien ; v Bd. 22 .
1-9 Number of nonfiling characters present.  A field begins with a definite or indefinite article that is disregarded in sorting and filing processes. Enter the number of characters in the article, plus spaces, punctuation, diacritical marks and special characters that precede the first significant word.

Any diacritical mark or special character associated with the first filing character is not included in the count of nonfiling characters.

2nd Indicator

Type of added entry. The type of added entry. The values distinguish between no information provided and an analytical entry. These indicators could be used to facilitate card filing arrangements. However, OCLC does not differentiate among types of added entries for sorting cards.
blank character No information provided. Either the added entry is not for an analytic or no information is provided as to whether the added entry is for an analytic.
